Caught Inside is where threads that descend into sh1tslinging will be moved to rumble on into whatever dark and dirty future or demise they have coming to them. For instance, if a thread goes bad like the Japan one it will be moved in there. Threads in Caught Inside will be like ones in the Members Surf Chat topic area which are not visible to the general internet so posts in there will not help to improve anyones google rating (I hope, it is not fully tested yet so I may be proven wrong).

Anyhoo, it'll be unlocked soon enough and can then be the black hole of MSW, have yet to determine qualification parameters for threads to be moved in there but I might just make them up as I go along unless there are any decent suggestions?

If you're looking for criteria, can I suggest threads where it's just about one perso n banging on / attention whoring. I got bored of the Japan thread, but on a quick count one individual posted 20 times in the last 2 pages alone (of a 12 page thread). This is a personal discussion / fixation that one person wants to get across, and should be carried on as PMs or something.

what we need is a matrix style forum run by some software which looks exactly the same as this one for roy .then he can argue with a computer for the rest of his days.it`ll free us all up to be as ignorant as we wish and talk about turning surfboards without fear of retribution. i think its a runner

I've often thought forums could do with a rating sytem where you vote other posters as being a dick or not. more than 80% think you are a dick and you are restricted as to how many posts you can make over 90% and you are kicked for a week.

Incorrect.

What happened on the Japan thread was the usual syndrome whereby a group decide to attack one poster with personal insults, then when he defends himself they say "look there he is talking about himself again"

They do this to get the thread locked.

You are so wonderfully myopic! The thread went off on a conversation about nuclear based on a post by papa woolacombe I think (or maybe it was Black) that was where the wheels got wobbly. What happened after that was ok for a while but then turned into the usual round of repetitive bs syndrome by more than one person. I left it run until totally OT images and personal remarks started coming into it, as I do with pretty much all threads, shit, if I was that much of an arse I would have banned your ass for the comments about me being an alcoholic and addict. But I didn't cause I ain't like that.

You need to learn to let go mate, you are not going to be able to educate the rest of the world from Mount Manuganuamama (or whatever it is called). Coming on here and trying to do that is going to invite discourse with a mix of people, some want genuine dialogue and some just wanna wind you up and you bite as much and more than everyone else.

Anyhoo, this is what it is and this thread will be off to it's new home very soon.

Yet to hear any more suggestions for rules on moving threads to Caught Inside, anyone?

why not call it a place for kayu and roy to bitch it out again and again and again, i have a theory its an s and m game they play and they get off on it !!! answers on a post card first correct answer wins a wooden surf board up to the value of 500,000 and wait till hallowen!!!

Think it more because they'd like you to either talk sense or stfu. Rather than act like a deluded conspiricy nut.
